With a 4 point delta on combat bonuses, you're only winning if you roll a six and the enemy rolls a 1, aka 1 in 36 aka don't even bother.  Get you some advanced engineering, heavy artillery, and/or explosive shells and tanks.

Even just Explosive Shells would be massive help already.

You guys have that, I have Radioactivity and armies.

Had I known about that bonus before I wouldn't have done that. But they looked so tempting.
The fact sea travel happens on the turn it's done also messed me up.

Oh yeah, if you had landed on his island you'd have completely conquered him.  The math was just too against you, though.

Nuclear-based superpowers are not available in this game.

Yeah, just +5RP for research.

What is with Atomic Theory only providing an extra +1 though, despite it's 200 cost? (Not like there is an atom bomb option, so seems a bit useless.)

That's +1 per academy, so potentially very high if you've eaten a rival or two.

With 10 academies, it pays for itself in 20 turns.

With 20, ten turns.  The earlier you get it, the better it is.

Hey, I'd love to deploy 5 armies, but I think I can only deploy 3, right?

I think your army number is wrong; it says you have five, but you have three on the map.  Regardless, you only have three deploy points, and there's a late tech required to deploy a second per HQ.

What if you throw two armies into the meat grinder before the end of the turn?

I was the one who demilitarized. Then you built up on the border with an HQ. And your lands are already a meatgrinder.

Also, I just did against red. I have no interest in fighting you for the foreseeable future. If you'd let some off that area I am perfectly willing to move mine to where they are actually needed.

Case in point, Sordland managing a landing. If you attack me after this, I am literally going to give everything to red so they can kill you.

Red, take notes on that.

del Sol, I am perfectly willing to offer myself up on a silver platter to Sordland just to spite your invading ways.
